You are driving in the middle lane of a three-lane dual carriageway and intend to move into the right-hand lane to overtake a slower vehicle. In what sequence should you carry out the following actions?
- 1Check your interior rear-view mirror and right door mirror
- 2Signal right to show your intention to change lanes
- 3Make a quick sideways glance into the right-hand blind spot
- 4Steer smoothly across into the right-hand lane
Cevap
The correct sequence is: Check interior and right door mirrors, signal right, check the right blind spot, and steer smoothly into the right-hand lane.
According to the official DVSA driving standard and Highway Code, drivers must apply the Mirrors-Signal-Manoeuvre (MSM) routine when changing lanes. This requires checking the interior mirror and appropriate exterior mirror first, applying the indicator signal to warn other road users, making a quick sideways glance into the blind spot to verify clearance, and finally executing the manoeuvre smoothly.
